Greetings everyone.
I apologize for my English, I am using Google Translate.
Before we begin, I want to express a special thanks to all those who contributed to the development of this application.
About two weeks ago, I started experimenting with the fantastic ThrottleStop 9.6, following various recommendations from this excellent forum.
My laptop is a Dell 5491 with an i7-8850H processor, but without dedicated graphics, and with a cooling system that leaves much to be desired. Due to this situation, I was forced to disable the TurboBoost function for many years. Despite having used Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut for about 6 months, for peace of mind, I decided to switch back to Arctic MX-6 thermal paste, as the temperature difference under heavy loads was approximately 5°C.
I only use my computer for work. Thanks to these adjustments, I've managed to increase my productivity at work.
I'm attaching some images of my settings and would be delighted to receive any recommendations that can help me improve efficiency, reduce temperatures, and boost performance. Although Intel states it's safe to operate at temperatures up to 100°C, I prefer to optimize performance by keeping the temperature below 95°C.
FIVR:
CPU Core:
CPU Cache:
TPL: The factory configuration comes with PL1 set at 45W and PL2 at 60W. Due to the cooling with Cinebench, I was getting a score of 2164, and after reducing the watts, I'm now getting 2,551. This is where my curiosity started, wondering if it's possible to increase that score below 95°C
Options:
Cinebench R20:
In the future, I plan to make the following modifications, but I'm not sure if they will work:

In the future, I plan to make the following modifications, but I'm not sure if they will work:
- Replace the Arctic MX6 thermal paste with PTM7950. Do you think it will bring any improvement?
- Change the aluminum fin heat sink I currently have installed to the one with copper fins that comes in the model with the NVIDIA GeForce MX130 GPU. Do you think it will help reduce temperatures?
